CIGT201608EM1R5MNE

Fixed inductors, also known as chokes, are one of the most common types of passive components found in electrical and electronic systems. The CIGT201608EM1R5MNE is an example of a fixed inductor as it is designed for use in applications that require high current and low EMI, such as switched-mode power supplies, AC power supplies, and DC-DC converters.

Application Field

The CIGT201608EM1R5MNE is a fixed inductor designed for signal and power supply applications where high current and low-frequency electromagnetic interference (EMI) are present. It is frequently used in mobile phones, computers, and other consumer electronic devices to minimize EMI. The inductor also finds applications in other industries, including automotive, telecommunications, defense, and industrial.

Working Principle

A fixed inductor functions by storing energy in the form of a magnetic field as a current passes through it. The energy is then released as the current decreases, such as when the power is switched off. This stored energy can cause voltage spikes that can damage sensitive electronic components, so the primary purpose of the CIGT201608EM1R5MNE is to reduce the level of these voltage spikes.

The CIGT201608EM1R5MNE is designed to provide high current with minimum interference, which is made possible by its various design features. This inductor is constructed using a metal core that is surrounded with windings. This arrangement improves the inductor’s ability to store energy and reduce EMI because the metal core is able to act as a shield against electrical noise. The number of turns in the winding can also be varied to optimize the inductor’s current and frequency characteristics.

When using the CIGT201608EM1R5MNE in an application, it is important to consider the ambient temperature and the layout of the components. As the ambient temperature increases, the inductor’s ability to store energy is reduced as the magnetic field is weakened. This can result in increased EMI and voltage spikes. The inductor should also be installed in a position that minimizes the amount of electrical noise that it is exposed to.

The CIGT201608EM1R5MNE is a versatile fixed inductor that is designed for applications with high current and low EMI. Its metal core and winding design provide excellent current and low EMI characteristics, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. It is important to consider the ambient temperature and layout of components to ensure that the inductor operates reliably.
